* Sam Alito... COME ON DOWN! You're the next contestant on "ProPublica is absolutely going to find all your past judicial ethics issues." It's becoming a popular show this year. [ProPublica] * Trump's documents trial set for August 14... before all the whining motions begins. [Law360] * Fund manager explains that the legal industry is in trouble because all of his rich buddies are using ChatGPT to write all their contracts. Oh, this is going to be very funny! [Yahoo Finance] * John Eastman's disbarment proceedings went about as well as you'd expect. [Washington Post] * Interesting analysis of how the nature of the student impacts the success of online legal education. [Law.com] * Arkansas ban on gender-affirming care struck down. [Reuters] * America needs to embrace failure a little more.
